Hey, can we stick to one ruler per post, please? Doesn't have to be one coin per post- you may post multiples of the same ruler in the same...
On a similar note about gift shops at historical landmarks, I saw fake "1700s" British King George halfpennies being sold at the museum gift shop...
Sorry, but they're tourist fakes, as was mentioned in the other thread. Pretty blatant fakes, too, with those filed edges. Chalk 'em up as...
Wow, what an impressive pile of loot! Somebody really likes you! :)
Then post it again, so we don't keep having stuff like "Hey, I posted a coin with a tiny depiction of that person on the reverse like 40 or 50...

Your son is named ... Quintillus? Wow.
True 'dat. We may not be done with him just yet.
Gonna be a toughie, most likely, but somebody in this crowd might pull it off. My chin still hurts from hitting the desk in a jawdrop after...
I've always found those short reigns fascinating. "Quintillus" is a cool sounding name, too. [ATTACH]
Separate names with a comma.
